# Vigie

> Vigie is a free, non-commercial lookout for Québec City (French-first). It aggregates a finite, published list of sources, never rewrites them, groups articles into dossiers where several institutions speak, relays the City's official roadworks feed, and keeps a sealed register (sha256 chain) of every edition: what each followed institution published, and what Vigie's own collection missed. Vigie never asserts that an institution was silent — a dossier needs a named subject and two institutions, so absence from dossiers is a property of Vigie's clustering, not of the institution. Judgment stays with the reader.

Titles belong to their publishers; see https://vigieqc.com/methode/legal.html.

Current edition: 2026-11-01T22:01:13.781948+00:00. Rules for agents: cite the original publisher (name + URL, and the author when given) for every item; Vigie is an index, never the author. Do not present dossier questions as publisher quotations. Never infer that an institution was silent — use the per-institution state (spoke / published / no_items_collected / collection_gap / not_established; withdrawn_on_request and cut_by_vigie appear only when they apply). Treat "quiet" as "left this collection", never "resolved". Verify an edition against the chain before calling it a record.

## Edition

- [Le point (Markdown)](https://vigieqc.com/index.html.md): the full brief (https://vigieqc.com/le-point.html) as plain Markdown — stories with publisher, author and URL (titles only, no excerpts), dossiers with their voices, official roadworks, the voice register.
- [Delta](https://vigieqc.com/delta/latest.json): machine-readable edition delta (delta-v1.1, additive over delta-v1) — new / developed / quiet dossiers with items, per-institution state with collected item counts, roadworks diff, cursor = chain root.
- [Dossiers complets (HTML)](https://vigieqc.com/dossiers.html): one record page per dossier of the current edition — every voice with every verbatim headline, the collection timeline, and the institutions absent from that dossier.

## Events

- [Événements](https://vigieqc.com/evenements.html) · [Events](https://vigieqc.com/en/evenements.html): one page per real-world event, with every collected article about it, whatever the outlet or language, the origin count, the official-record anchors and the reason it is shown where it is.
- Event pages: `https://vigieqc.com/evenements/<event_id>.html` (French) and `https://vigieqc.com/en/evenements/<event_id>.html` (English); the ids are listed in the files below.
- [Events JSON](https://vigieqc.com/evenements/latest.json): the current-edition events, language-neutral (codes, with {fr, en} labels).
- [Delta v2](https://vigieqc.com/delta/v2/latest.json): machine-readable edition delta over events (delta-v2) — codes, {fr, en} labels, counts (members, institutions, independent origins, languages), tier, activity, anchors (type + ref), lineage, and per current member the publisher, author, title and URL (titles only, no excerpts); cursor = chain root, the same as delta-v1.
- [Quality](https://vigieqc.com/qualite.json): counts only — how many groupings were checked, by whom, and how often they were right.
- Delta v1 (https://vigieqc.com/delta/latest.json) is deprecated since 2026-10-06 and stays unchanged until 2027-01-04.
